BILL 17: AN ACT TO AMEND THE PROTECTION AGAINST FAMILY VIOLENCE ACT

I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Yellowknife South, that Bill 17, An Act to Amend the Protection Against Family Violence Act, be read for the second time.

This bill amends the Protection Against Family Violence Act to remove the ambiguity respecting the duration of emergency protection orders, giving Supreme Court authority to correct minor defects in emergency protection orders during the review process, allowing the Minister to review emergency protection order transcripts for research, evaluation and training purposes, and increase the maximum fine for offences under the act. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Speaker: MR. SPEAKER

Bill 17 has had second reading and is referred to a standing committee.
